Lake Daniell is a lake in the Tasman District of the South Island of New Zealand.

It is drained by Frazer Stream which in turn feeds into the Alfred River and is surrounded by old growth beech forest. A tramping track leads to the lake and an adjacent hut, the Manson-Nicholls Memorial Hut. [cite web

In 2002 there was a search in the area for a missing tramper who was part of a group staying at the lake. The tramper, a 14 year old male, was found dead next to the Alfred River. [cite news
